In a May 30 letter, the Chief Justice told the President that "Justice Asante's term of office at the ECOWAS court ended on July 31, 2022, and was "requested to remain at post on account of the withdrawal of Mali, Guinea and Burkina Faso from the community."
She added that "his current tenure is expected to end in 2026 or earlier when he is expected to return to Ghana's Judiciary."
